Jon Oliver aptly summed up the danger of blindly investing in the cryptocurrency when he described it as, “Everything you don’t understand about money combined with everything you don’t understand about computers”. Accordingly, Bitcoin has more than halved in value this year, causing critics to call it everything from a deflating bubble to a pyramid scheme.
